Final Thoughts
In a time when gun companies are complaining about low sales, what does Ruger do? The company expands its product line. Give the consumer what they want, and people will buy.
I am going to go ahead and say it, “Colt and Remington should take a lesson from Ruger.” That lesson is listen to the consumer, and offer quality products.
